Search and rescue operations continue as Spain mourns at least 95 deadpublished at 21:01 Greenwich Mean Time
Spain has been coming to terms with the deadly impact of the flash flooding that ravaged southern communities over the past 24 hours.
The last update from Valencian authorities at 19:30 CET (18:30 GMT) put the death toll in the region at 92, with another two people killed in the neighbouring region of Castilla-La Mancha.
A 71-year-old British man also died hours after being rescued from his home in Alhaurin de la Torre, in Malaga, according to Andalusia’s regional leader.
Our correspondent Nicky Schiller has only just landed in Valencia and says the rain has receded, but earlier Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez urged residents in the area, as well as in Andalusia and Catalonia, to remain cautious as red and orange weather warnings remain in place across large swathes of the territory.
Territorial policy minister Ángel Víctor Torres said it was still unclear how many people were missing after more than a year’s worth of rain fell in southern Spain in barely eight hours on Tuesday.
And as King Felipe VI spoke of the "enormous destruction" the flooding caused, Torres announced Spain will observe three days of mourning from tomorrow until Sunday. In the meantime, search and rescue operations will continue.
We’ll be ending our coverage of the flooding in Spain shortly but you can read more on how the events unravelled in our story here and our Europe reporter Laura Gozzi has brought together testimonies from people affected by the flooding.
